Nielsen Co. Acquires GlanceGuide

The Nielsen Company has acquired GlanceGuide, a video analytics firm, purporting to measure attentiveness levels for Web video content.

The Palo Alto, Calif.-based GlanceGuide has been a Nielsen partner since 2009.

As online video consumption proliferates, video analytics has become an increasingly important market segment.
